Head of project: dr Jolanta Konieczkowska

Project realization period: 26.06.2020 - 25.06.2024

The aim of this project is to elucidate the structure-properties relationships of functionalized azopolyimide, “guest-host” azosystems and azo blends. The results obtained in this project may also allow formulating some general relationships between the chemical architecture of new (azo)materials and cis-trans/trans-cis isomerization, mechanical properties and photomechanical properties, which would enable the modeling of chemical structure to obtain materials with required characteristics for specific applications.
Our investigations have both cognitive and application aspect that will contribute to the extension of knowledge concerning the type of compounds investigated which may lead to the development of new materials with defined properties for the preparation of photonic and optoelectronic devices.
